If I would not have needed to replace my daily last year but instead this year, I would not own my FRS.

Right now, if I had to buy new under $25k I would consider the new Mazda6 or Mazda3. Outstanding value, fun, good looking, great mileage and you can still get 6sp mannies.

I've driven lots of FWD cars that I feel are more fun than the FRS.
The new Mazda3 is really nice. I agree - especially with the optional aero package that you can get from Mazda. They showed it at SEMA, it would not be a horrid DD - the acceleration is as quick as the FR-S in the 2.5L Skyactiv and the steering response is pretty damn good.

I could deal with this as a DD
